The Light in the Labyrinth

The Life and Death of Anne Boleyn

by Wendy J. Dunn

IN THE WINTER OF 1535, young Kate Carey lives with her mother and her new family, far from the royal court. Unhappy with her life and wanting to escape her home, she accepts the invitation of Anne Boleyn, the aunt she idolises, to join her household in London.

But the dark, dangerous labyrinth of Henry VIII’s court forces Kate to grow up fast as she witnesses her aunt’s final tragic days — and when she discovers a secret that changes her life forever.

All things must end—all things but love.

Praise for The Light in the Labyrinth:

“The Light in the Labyrinth is quite the read - no matter the age of the reader. And yes, thanks to Kate, a new voice has been added to the well-known haunting melody - a voice that mellows and matures as the story evolves and yet retains a touch of bittersweet innocence right to the bloody, inevitable end.”

~ Anna Belfrage, for The Review

“It is exactly the type of novel that draws youth into a life-long love of history.”

~ Beth von Staats

“Wendy Dunn has an exquisite feel for adolescent turmoil. This coming-of-age tale of thirteen-year-old Catherine Carey becoming her aunt Anne Boleyn's close companion and bearing witness to the Queen's arrest, trial and death is deeply moving. The novel can excite readers to want to learn more about the people and events she recreates.”

~ Loretta Goldberg, 5* review
